The Holocaust was arguably the worst form of attempted genocide the world has ever known. To think that this period occurred just a few generations ago is incredible. Such evil and wickedness has not been forgotten, and never will be. Remembering the Holocaust and the survivors of such dark times restores hope and faith in the strength of humanity despite any atrocities we see in our millennial epoch.
The Chai Center NY is proud to present a six week lecture series beginning at the end of April. These Dix Hills Jewish talks will feature Rabbi Avraham Lehr discussing questions such as “What does Jewish faith say about our people and tragedy?” “How do we develop the kind of faith and optimism necessary to understand and encounter events as terrible as the Holocaust?” “How do we respond to this kind of suffering, and what does it mean to view the suffering of another?”
This philosophical inquiry delves into the human consciousness as we examine basic human and Jewish values that have helped our people to deal with a history of diaspora, struggle, and success. So join the Chai Center NY for this stimulating intellectual discussion as we come to understand the power of faith and Judaism to anchor hope and happiness in our lives.
